Stephen King, filmed by Joel & Ethan Cohen with a script by Luis Buñuel, that’s a pretty good referentia on David Lynch, I think. Which coincides with my personal favorites, apart from the spooky books. His later films seems really weird – except The Straight Story of course – and while I watched it I thought that Wild at Heart was an exercise of form leading up to the great weird films he made later. But realizing he had already made Eraserhead, Dune and Blue Velvet made me take that back. It’s simply David Lynch.
